I don’t even know where to start!
Check-in/out couldn’t have been easier. Directions provided led us straight to the location; don’t depend on Google maps; the owner sent a text with clear and precise directions in advance.
Cleanliness: It was super clean! Such a nice feeling to arrive to something so spotless! We brought our two dogs(goldendoodles), and sometimes places that allow dogs are not as clean… looked and smelled like no pets were ever there.
Pet policy: As mentioned they did allow the dogs. Such a nice feature that saved on boarding fees for us and allowed us to spend vacation time with our fur babies as well. The dogs loved running the property and swimming the lake. We brought a large crate to put them in when we were gone from cabin and couldn’t take them with.
Parking. We had two large vehicles (12 passenger van and quad cab F150. It was a tight fit, but there was additional parking by lake if needed. I am glad we didn’t need it, as it would have made it a little inconvenient, but for our purposes, it was fine.
Accuracy of listing: My only complaint is that the pictures didn’t do this property justice. In their defense, pictures could never fully capture the beauty and peace at this property! :)
Communication: A+ it was so nice to meet them; they felt like long-time friends and were so extremely nice! They communicated very detail and we were able to see them on property a couple times and also to text them during our stay. We texted one night to do a bonfire at an overlook that was just too beautiful for words - the mountains in the distance were breathtaking! They set the fire up for us at a designated time and had it ready for us when we arrived. Seriously the nicest and friendliest hosts! Met their son and daughter and grandkids, too! All of them were just precious!
Location: It was located on a vast private property with so much to do on the property itself; we spent one whole day exploring the property, trails in the woods, the lake, etc. it felt like you were in the middle of nowhere, but it was literally minutes to Clayton and many conveniences (Wal-mart, restaurants, shopping, quaint local spots, trails, parks)! This property is simply beautiful and we could’ve spent the whole time on property exploring if we had wanted!
Cabin: fully stocked with supplies! Laundry facilities, plenty of beds and (3) bathrooms, fireplace, screened porch and unscreened, grill, fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms.
